    Artificial grass up to wooden 6x6 fence panels.

    The durable interlocking plastic edging looks like the one I'll go for. Thank you for the reply and reassurance

    Top soil

    I would go for the gravel for the first 200mm, that should get the cost down a bit.

    Was I too early?

    It's probably a lack of light coupled with relatively high temperatures during the day. I'd sow again late April/early May, direct in the ground.

    Messy tall bush

    Looks a bit like an overgrown privet hedge to me. If it is you can cut it hard back, but it will not look good until next summer.
